Chapter 52: The Habit of Stalking People
The people around who were interested in watching the show took a deep breath.
Isn't this a reselling job? Huo Jinying was ready to agree to pay, but the next second, the situation reversed. Do they still have to wait to receive the money?
Xia Yaoyao's eyes darkened. She didn't expect Xia Mi to be so shameless.
Xia Mi knew that they couldn't come up with so much money. Although the Xia family was in poverty, it was difficult to go from extravagant to frugal, and the family expenses were still very high.
Not to mention taking out nineteen hundred, even nine hundred would be enough, unless you sell things on the black market.
"But aunt is right. I have indeed spent a lot of money since I was a child. I can let the nineteen thousand go, but the contract must be signed today."
The two of them made excuses to delay signing, which made Xia Mi even more eager to get someone to sign.
Xia Yaoyao was really forced into a corner, so she silently agreed and took the initiative to hand the contract to Li Yinshuang.
"Mom, sign it."
Huo Jinying took out a pen from her pocket and pointed to the place where she should sign. "Sign the same place for both copies."
"I'm not stupid." Li Yinshuang squeezed out a reply from her back teeth.
After Li Yinshuang signed the contract and stamped it, she glared at Xia Mi and Huo Jinying, turned around and took Xia Yaoyao to board the ship without looking back.
The boat left the dock, drifted on the sea, and gradually went away until it disappeared from Xia Mi's sight.
The sea breeze was howling, and the waves were rolling, with one wave after another hitting the edge of the pier.
Xia Mi looked at the contract in her hand, and the stone in her heart fell to the ground quietly. She signed her name without hesitation and put her fingerprint on it.
It was only eight o'clock when everything was done. After Xia Mi greeted Huo Jinying, she hurried to work. -Zhuifeng Primary School.
Xia Mi arrived at school just as the bell rang. She walked to the door of her office panting, took a deep breath, and tried her best to calm her breathing.
"Teacher Xia, did you oversleep?"
Zhao Xiaoying just walked to the door and bumped into the hurried Xia Mi.
"Something delayed me." Xia Mi walked sideways into the office.
"Sister Xia Mi." Gao Zhilei stood obediently by the side waiting for Xia Mi, holding a first-grade math textbook in his hand.
Xia Mi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that she had agreed to go to the class with Gao Zhilei.
"Sorry, please wait a moment." Xia Mi unlocked the door, opened the drawer, took out the second-grade textbook, and then stood up.
Zhuifeng Primary School is a bungalow of stone buildings, which are divided into groups of one, two, three, three, four, and five.
Gao Zhilei and Xia Mi walked side by side and entered the classroom together.
After Xia Mi briefly introduced Gao Zhilei's identity, she hurriedly left and returned to the second grade classroom.
When the get out of class was over, Gao Zhilei was already waiting at the door of the second grade.
Xia Mi patted the chalk dust off her hands, put the chalk back into the chalk box, and finally walked out of the classroom with her textbook.
"Sister Xia Mi, I have a question for you about Niu Mei."
Niu Mei is a relatively introverted child in the class, but she thinks very quickly and can solve problems quickly.
Xia Mi also paid attention to this student.
When Gao Zhilei saw Xia Mi coming out, he naturally walked side by side with her and discussed the students in the class.
Zhao Xiaoying came out of the fourth grade classroom and happened to see this scene. Gao Zhilei was talking to Xia Mi excitedly. Xia Mi said a few words from time to time, but most of the time she was listening.
Xia Mi is not short, she is about the same height as Gao Zhilei's shoulders, and this height combination is really pleasing to the eyes of others.
"Teacher Zhao, what are you looking at? You look at it so fascinated."
When Zhao Xiaoying came to her senses, Xia Mi and Gao Zhilei had already walked up to her.
"I didn't see anything. I saw you two were having a good chat. What were you talking about?"
Gao Zhilei is good at talking, and he immediately took over the conversation, "We are talking about the students in the class."
"By the way, Comrade Xiao Gao, I heard that you have a city hukou in Qingcheng. How come you were assigned to our place?"
"This has nothing to do with my hukou. I also followed the school's arrangements. In fact, the conditions on Zhuifeng Island are relatively good. Several of my classmates were assigned to more remote islands that don't even have electricity."
"That's right. Although our island is poor, we also benefited from the garrison. We got electricity a year ago. Speaking of this, it was Captain Huo who led the team here at that time."
When Gao Zhilei saw Zhao Xiaoying mention Captain Huo, he looked at Xia Mi.
"Is this Captain Huo the boyfriend of Sister Xia Mi?"
"He's not my boyfriend, he's my husband." Xia Mi admitted generously.
Gao Zhilei was stunned for a moment, his eyes flashing with surprise, "Teacher Xia is married? Then Teacher Zhao and Teacher Gu..."
"Why? Do you still want to be with Teacher Xia?" Zhao Xiaoying asked boldly and directly.
Gao Zhilei denied anxiously, "No, no, no, I didn't. Teacher Xia and I are responsible for the same things, so I want to communicate with her more and get to know the children as soon as possible."
"Tsk tsk, you used to call me Sister Xia Mi all the time, but now you call me Teacher Xia when you know someone is getting married."
"Teacher Xia, I really didn't mean that." Zhao Zhilei panicked, "No, Sister Xia Mi, Teacher Zhao, please stop teasing me."
Gao Zhilei's face flushed red and he hurried to explain.
Xia Mi saw that Zhao Xiaoying was deliberately teasing Gao Zhilei, so she quietly quickened her pace and left, leaving Gao Zhilei to chase Zhao Xiaoying to explain. -Nancheng State Guesthouse.
On the second day of arriving in Nancheng, Huo Jingchen and Jiang Weidong checked into a new hotel under the hospitality.
As soon as he arrived at the gate, Huo Jingchen saw a familiar figure. After the person turned around, he looked a little stunned, but quickly returned to normal.
"Engineer Huo, I heard that your institute is applying for..."
The man realized that the topic was sensitive, so he lowered his voice and leaned closer to ask Huo Jingting.
Huo Jingchen looks more like his father. He usually has no expression and a cold look, giving off an oppressive feeling that keeps strangers away. When he is impatient, his eyes and eyebrows become sharp and fierce.
Huo Jingting, on the contrary, has a reserved and deep temperament, a cold and fair complexion, and clear and elegant features.
Jiang Weidong noticed that the person next to him was a little stiff and in an abnormal state, so he looked in the direction he was looking.
"Is that your eldest brother?"
"Well, why is he here? Isn't he studying fighter jets?"
Huo Jingting turned around with a smile on his face, looking at his brother whom he hadn't seen for a long time, "Is there a rule that fighter jets can't come?"
"Since you can come, it seems possible."
Huo Jingchen stared at him, harshly speaking, but a smile appeared in his eyes.
Huo Jingting introduced to the person next to him, "This is my younger brother, Huo Jingchen, currently stationed in the garrison area of Zhuifeng Island in Dongcheng."
"Hello Comrade Huo, my name is Li Dengchao, and I'm from Suzhou."
Huo Jingchen lowered his eyelashes and looked at the man's outstretched hand, then shook it back and said, "Comrade Li, what a coincidence! My wife is from Suzhou."
Jiang Weidong was speechless: When will you stop talking about your wife? When Huo Jingting heard about his lover, his eyes lit up, and he was obviously interested in this topic.
"Really? That's such a coincidence." Li Dengchao said politely.
After a few greetings, Huo Jingchen got tired of this kind of social scene. More and more people returned to the hotel and gathered at the door to get to know each other.
Huo Jingchen found an excuse and prepared to leave Jiang Weidong and go back to his room.
After he stepped onto the stairs, a man followed closely behind him. Huo Jingchen turned around and saw that it was his eldest brother.
"After four years, big brother has developed a habit of stalking people?"
